Proper Driving

A 15 -30 second signal before changing lanes? In the Philippines, try doing this & all cars, jeeps, buses, trikes & motorbikes will definitely speed up to prevent you from changing lanes. Ako nga, when I signal to change lanes even if that lane is free, the vehicle on that lane will honk or flash me & it happens at least once a day. My SUV has this feature for changing lanes. I just flick the turn signal a bit & it flashes for 7 seconds. I think 7-10 seconds is ideal.

naku dami ganito, kung kelan liliko saka turn on signal. kainis mga ganitong driver,hirap minsan tantsa ng gagawin.minsan naman kahit liliko ka na dami pa rin susulpot na gustong sumingit.kaya me kasabihan na kahit anong ingat mo sa daan kung balasubas naman ang iba wala rin kwenta

Depende sa speed ng mga vehicle and lawak ng daan. The earlier you signal, the better. General rule sa daan, visible ka, and Alam ng kapwa motorist mo what you're about to do. Kaya nagkakaaksidente ay dahil hindi nakita or hindi na forecast ang gagawin ng motorista.

Dagdag ko lang.

1. Give way to emergency vehicles:
- Ambulance
- Fire Truck
- Police Cars , Bikes
(And dont follow them na kunwari kasama ka)

2. Always stop before pedestrian crossings & yellow boxes (even if others dont)

3. Always give way to a pedestrian once he/she started to cross inside the pedestrian crossing.

4. Use your turn signals 15-30 seconds before you actually make the turn. (Hindi yung kung kelan paliko tsaka lang sesenyas)

5. If you really need to stop or drop off somebody at a busy road, look for a place that will give less inconvenience to other motorists. (Hindi porke naka-hazard ka wala ka pakialam sa iba)

6. On expressways. Follow the speed limit and get out of the damn overtaking lane!!!!

7. Dont use your hazard lights when the rain is heavy. Because we cannot tell if your turning left or right. Your headlights are enough for us to tell that you are there.

8. Always gesture (with a smile) to the driver that let you in their lane as a sign of appreciation. (Pinagbigyan ka niya. Huwag feeling entitled).

Neto ko lang din po nalaman na bawal palang harangan ang pedestrian lane kahit traffic.. Eto ang masasabi ko na isa sa common mistakes..

And yung number 8 po.. Kahit pedestrian po ako kapag merong driver na pinatawid ako.. Tumatango ako and kahit pabulong lang I say Thank you or Salamat.. Di niya man marinig baka sakaling nakatingin sya na gets nya na thankful ako.. [emoji4]

This is the problem with LTO. Hindi naman pasaway mga tao. Mostly, unaware sila.

Ako naman as a pedestrian i raise my hand (with a smile) as a gesture of thanks to the driver who gave way to me.

sa sobrang ungas ng mga driver ngayon, pag tumatawid ako sa ped xing kanto namin para kumain ng squid balls; mukha akong engot kung kumaway at naka ngiti sa lahat ng motorista na madaaanan ko kahit naka redlight pa sila. nakakatuwa lang nun isang araw kasi kinawayan ako nun babae at nag smile din, buti nalang maganda ^_^
last year yata yun, may isang 6 wheeler pinilit talaga (sobrang bilis takbo) ako unahan sa pedxing kahit lahat ng auto pinadaan nako, pagdaan sa harap ko hinampas ko yun malaking side mirror nya ayun nabasag as in kalat sa kalye. pagdating ko sa sidewalk inintay ko para iexplain kung bakit ko nagawa yun. di naman bumababa, sayang sana may natutunan sana sya.

I also do this.
Kaya kahit sa ibang bansa nadadala tuloy mannerism. Tanong sa akin bakit ko daw ginagawa yon eh magbibigay naman yung mga kotse sa pedestrian. Sabi ko na lang force of habit. Hehe

Malapit sa roundabout ang bahay ko dito sa Oman at nakakaaliw panoorin kung gaano kaayos mag engage mga driver dito sa roundabout.

Wala talaga natitigil sa gitna ng roundabout, sa pinas pati sa roundabout o rotonda ang gulo.

I made a signal mistake last weekend. Nagsignal ako to the left to enter our subdivision. Hinintay ko makadaan yung approaching vehicle so nag stop muna ako. Hindi ako dapat tumabi sa kanan, di ko napansin may motor sa likod na sisingit sa kanan kasi nkasignal ako ng left. Pinagsabihan ako na mali signal ko (tama signal ko mali movement ng car).

Mali signal mo. Your intent is correct but your execution caused you to do the exact opposite of what you are telling others. You should have stayed on your lane and made the turn right after the incoming car has passed. Di na kailangan tumabi pa sa kanan. You may think that this is inconvenient to the cars behind you, and rightly so if you made the signal late, but it is common road courtesy to let others do what they have to do insofar as they signal their intent and go about it quickly.

A cardinal rule of driving is to clearly make your intent known to other road users. Even if you know that others may foil your intent or not extend you the courtesy.

Yup, it was an unnecessary movement to the right. It was a one lane street so I thought wala naman magkakasya dito sa gilid. Wrong, kasya sumingit ng motor. Lesson learned.

Great Thread! Worth Sharing specially sa Pilipanas para ma apply ng mga motorist.

Those who tailgate at the tollbooth. Iniilawan and binubusinahan ako pag nagstop ako before the barrier with the sign; "next vehicle stop here."

Bwisit mga ganyang drivers. Pinoy na pinoy. Walang pinag iba sa pila sa Airport pag nag check-in. May yellow line pero lampas lampas mga tao. Or sa MRT, yellow line rin pero lampas mga pasahero.

Sa atm may ganyang tao rin. Pag ganun, I stop what I doing and look at the person behind me. Yung galit look or "wala ka bang concept ng personal space?" look.

Di ko lang alam pano pwede gawin sa toll booth yan.

Well, I just ignore them. Sometimes, some of them will have a problem reading their ECTAG so I always give space so that he can back out.

I admit, this is annoying when you are just following rules and regulations.

Ito napapanuod ko sa news puro na lang vehicular accident. Accident ba talaga or carelessness ?????

Sa panahon ngayon lalo na dito metro manila, dapat pag drive ka wala distraction. So ako pag may lugar na first time ko puntahan eh old school, minememorize ko dapat daanan or hinto sa fuel station at magtanong directions.. Or pag may kasama ako, sya magcheck sa smartphone nya.

Pati radyo nga hindi ko na gaano on. Kasi nga itong mga scootings bigla sulpot eh. I need my daredevil hearing kung may pararting sa gilid blind spot. Pero syemrpe hindi maiiwasan pag inabot ako sa kalsada eh nakikinig ako pag may laban team ko purefoods so kinig ako sa play by play radio broadcast. Pag walang game syempre FM 98.7 the masters touch.

Isa pa talaga dapat ayusin ng land transportation office eh iban super dark tints. Mas gaganda driving pag yan nawala. Syempre linaw na hindi na nangangapa.

And please lang, yung tv sa harap ng kotse bawal. Syempre hindi makakatiis driver susulyap yan. Yang sulyap na yan pwede makabangga.

Wag gawin home theater ang kotse. Si driver magfocus at si passenger side eh umalalay din sa hindi nakikita ni driver.
